Doughnut Falls — Local services in Four Corners States

The hike going to the falls was easy. We saw a lot of parents and their children along the way. It would have just been OK if one is contented just watching other people climb up at the end of the trail to reach the doughnut rock. But I just had to experience it (being a senior citizen). Climbing up was not bad, just taking my time, using the rocks as my guide. Watching the water inside the cavern was amazing and was worth the climb. Going down was harder, holding on to the rope with my dear life. It was more challenging taking into account that I was afraid of heights. A wonderful lady was actually at the foot of the rock, ready to help me just in case. Another bonus was on our way back, we saw a moose, a first for my husband and I.

For the more adventurous, the final 100 feet of the hike is a technical scramble up slippery wet rocks to the base of the cave. I only recommend attempting this part if you are an experienced hiker with good wayfinding and scrambling skills. People have been seriously injured attempting to climb the rocks, so proceed at your own risk. There were ropes left behind by previous groups, but you shouldn't trust them.

If hiking up to doughnut falls after you cross the wooden bridge go left, this was the only part of the trail that we were unsure where to proceed. I made it to the top to see the falls, and I'm slightly overweight. I did however take my time and I thought about each maneuver before I took a step. When I reached the top only 2 people were there. I went inside the cave knowing my feet were going to be icy cold, but it was worth it to see the beauty and feel the rush and power of the water. I did it in converse shoes which I dont recommend. My feet were numb...
